Compare a statement like this:
"I know you may be relatively new here, so to help you be successful,
here are some ideas for how to structure for your project"
to a statement like this:
"I am disappointed to yet again see someone doing this wrong and
ignoring the requests of the community"
There is a difference in the level of language proficiency needed to use
the first sentence so you're asking a great deal of people using a
second language to use that level of proficiency.
This might be appropriate for easing people into a new situation but I
think you also have to take into account that technical people and there
are many here usually are more direct , blunt if you like.
How would you rephrase Fredrick's post by the way? I may have missed
your answer.
Can you clarify who "your team" in this context is? You were introduced
in Marjan's initial post as "OSMF Communication Working Group Member"
and were the only of four names without a TomTom affiliation. You are
posting this neither from an OSMF nor from a TomTom address but from a
gmail one.
Is "your team" a corporate TomTom endeavour? Is it the OSMF
Communications working group? Or...?
Unclear affiliations are a problem, as I pointed out in this thread a
few days ago. Has everything I said been filed away under "pushback" and
ignored?
Many Thanks
Cheerio John
